Time Nick Message 00:00 Shara Since when was multicraft not updating? 00:02 paramat the owner tells me that they are not going to keep up with MT after 0.4.16 because 'C++11 changes broke android' or something 00:02 paramat so it may be difficult for them to be compatible with 0.5.0 00:03 paramat or even impossible 00:05 Shara Interesting 00:06 Shara But it really means the official one is just more important 00:07 IhrFussel Off for the night, see ya :) 00:10 paramat yes, to give players a good alternative 00:58 paramat waah mommy! so many whiners in the forum :] 00:58 rubenwardy https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?p=294728#p294728 01:31 paramat we need to stop these people posting mindless spam 01:32 Shara Please do. 01:32 benrob0329 paramat: I have made many suggestions for Offtopic, no one has paid attention to them 01:39 paramat i guess the reasonable offtopic is ok, just need to deal with the mindless stuff 01:40 benrob0329 paramat: Well no one said what offtopic was for, you guys just nuked it and left everyone wondering what happened 01:41 benrob0329 Instead of making the purpose of Offtopic clear, the forum moderators made it more confusing for everyone 01:41 paramat the removal of offtopic was a surprise for most core devs, 'we' didn't do it, i still don't know who did 01:42 paramat it obvious offtopic is for reasonable offtopic, and it's obvious that mindless spam is not welcome 01:42 benrob0329 Well I suppose I assumed you were a forum moderator, to make it more clear the forum mods did 01:42 benrob0329 but nothing suggests that 01:42 sofar lol, I didn't know, but, it doesn't matter imho, as long as bans for excessive offtopic do not happen, it's gonna stay like this 01:43 benrob0329 I don't even know what offtopic is anymore 01:43 benrob0329 and I usually hang out in the offtopic section of forums 01:43 Aerozoic I rarely browse the forum but looking at it now there is clearly an Off topic section but in that section is an "on-topic" subsection. WTF? 01:43 rubenwardy the offtopic forums should be merged into one, and a guideline posted 01:43 paramat most of it is reasonable 01:44 benrob0329 Offtopic should be renamed to something that suggests laid back, but still meaningful discussion 01:44 paramat some topics are just mindless though, and there are certain individuals, MineYoshi, BBmine, azekill etc. who need to be dealt with 01:45 benrob0329 and guidelines posted to be loosely followed 01:45 Aerozoic Looks like crazyness to me. I've never seen a forum without an offtopic. Why should it be so highly regulated? 01:45 benrob0329 It shouldn't be, it shouldn't have to be at least. 01:45 benrob0329 but mindless spam is going to happen if there is no rhyme or reason as to why it is like it is 01:46 paramat https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?p=261518&f=54#p261518 01:46 benrob0329 I have seen some very high quality offtopic sections, they are never named offtopic 01:46 paramat "s***posting (in "Offtopic", or anywhere else for that matter) will be removed without warning, and may result in bans." 01:46 Shara what benrob0329 said really 01:47 benrob0329 so...posting the rules in the "on topic" section of offtopic means everyone is going to see them? 01:47 paramat " the offtopic forums should be merged into one, and a guideline posted" yes 01:47 Shara Agreed 01:47 benrob0329 I don't know what to post, where to post, or how to act in offtopic anymore 01:49 paramat well the 'on topic' title is a joke by c55 01:49 benrob0329 its confusing 01:49 paramat all subforums are under the one master branch 'offtopic' so it's clear 01:50 benrob0329 or maybe, "The Water Cooler" or "The Lounge" 01:50 paramat but yes we need to merge them and remove the joke subforum titles 01:50 benrob0329 something that implies laid back, but not necessarily way off in left field posts 01:53 paramat yeah 01:53 benrob0329 then a Section topic to solidify that 01:56 sofar it's the meta-conversations that are distructive 01:58 paramat VanessaE if you're about, 2 topics to bin https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?f=56&t=17673 and https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?f=56&t=18516 02:02 paramat i'd make an excellent moderator :D low tolerance 02:06 Aerozoic tolerance is a good thing 02:06 rubenwardy whilst those topics are blatently awful 02:07 rubenwardy it's better to be somewhat tolerant, to stop stiffling of conversation 02:07 Shara balance is the good thing :) 02:07 rubenwardy exactly 02:11 paramat yeah of course, half joking 02:12 benrob0329 Balance is good, but the spam posts hurt forums 02:13 paramat however anything like those 2 topics i would close 02:13 benrob0329 We need a sub section for games 02:13 benrob0329 One for "The Lounge" and a sub for forum games 02:13 Shara Balance to me is give fair warnings to make sure they are informed, and if the warnings aren't heeded, then act as you have said you will 02:13 paramat yes 02:13 Shara Now meaningful follow up on warnings leads to warnings not meaning anything and getting ignored 02:14 Shara No* 02:15 paramat mindless nonsense is not allowable i feel, they can do that elsewhere 02:15 benrob0329 I would agree 02:16 benrob0329 If it was a post once in a while that was questionable in depth, I think it'd be ok to allow it. But currently its leaking into the rest of the forums 02:21 Aerozoic Am i the only one that thinks this entire conversation is ridiculous? 02:25 benrob0329 Aerozoic: talking about how we can make the offtopic section less off topic? Yes, yes it is 02:25 benrob0329 But its necessary 03:17 paramat aerozoic yes you are :] 06:13 CWz Lol the removal of off topic really pissed off some squirts 06:58 celeron55 https://gizmodo.com/the-eu-suppressed-a-300-page-study-that-found-piracy-do-1818629537 06:58 celeron55 this is interesting 06:59 celeron55 (not really related to minetest) 08:20 shivajiva Hi Raven262 08:58 Raven262 Hi shivajiva 08:58 Raven262 lol 08:58 Raven262 so many reconnections over the past night. 08:58 Raven262 i guess it was lisac's doing. 08:59 lisac yes yes my doing 09:06 shivajiva something was going on, my log is empty, like nobody spoke/joined/parted 09:11 Raven262 Time to reboot to the most favorite(hated) OS of all... 09:17 shivajiva can someone confirm rotation is only in 90 degree steps for nodes? 09:24 shivajiva nvm 09:53 H4mlet one could wonder what odd rotations - non 90° - could be actually used for, e.g. clock handles, levers, windroses, windsocks, etc. 09:54 H4mlet clock handles -> clock hands 10:38 srifqi hi nerzhul 10:39 Shara Hello all 10:40 srifqi hello Shara 10:42 nerzhul hi 10:42 Raven262 Hi Shara, nerzhul. 10:42 Shara How's it going? 10:43 * Raven262 now has lots of free time for the next 2 days. 10:43 Raven262 So, anybody got any good pixel art tutorials? 10:43 srifqi I've never done Pixel Art. (^_^")\ 10:43 Shara Only one I can think of is the one rubenwardy's modding guide links to 10:44 Shara http://www.photonstorm.com/art/tutorials-art/16x16-pixel-art-tutorial 10:44 Shara It's kidn of short though, but maybe helps 10:44 Shara kind* 10:44 Raven262 Interesting. 10:45 Raven262 I didn't see this way of making sprites yet, usually people say that starting with an outline is easy, but removing the outline later is quite hard. 10:45 Raven262 So they avoid it 10:46 Shara I've never looked into it much. 10:46 Shara Just noticed that since I was doing edits on the book 10:47 Raven262 I'm looking for ways to improve my texturing, since it takes me a bit too long to create textures right now. 10:47 Shara I should really, since it takes me forever to make textures I like 10:47 Shara Forever to the point that I tend to give up on whole mods I was working on and just leave them sitting 10:48 Raven262 I have one tutorial that helped me a lot 10:48 Shara Can you share? 10:48 Raven262 sure, lemme find it 10:48 Shara I'm at... three people having offered to make armour textures for my armour mod now, and weeks later I still don't have anything 10:48 Raven262 Wrong OS, gotta reboot. 10:51 Raven262 Shara, http://www.minecraftforum.net/forums/mapping-and-modding-java-edition/resource-packs/resource-pack-discussion/1254358-pixel-art-texturing-explained 10:51 Raven262 long link lol 10:52 Raven262 That one has a bit of everything. 10:53 Shara Thank you 10:53 Raven262 np, i'm collecting good tutorials :) 10:53 Shara I just figure I'm going to have to make the textures I want myself the way things are going so.... need to find a way to make it less painful 10:54 Raven262 What kind of textures are you making? 10:55 Shara Armour currently 10:55 Raven262 You making the texture to fit the original 3d armour style, or making the new ones? 10:55 Raven262 I though to make the new ones in my amber mod, but it hardly fits the rest of the mod. 10:56 Shara I'm not sure what the difference is. 10:56 Shara I want my armour having more detail than the old ones though (I can't stand the news one so never use them) 10:56 Shara new* 10:57 Raven262 Well, thats the difference, the old ones are outlined which gives little space for detail. 10:57 Shara To be honest, I'd love to make textures to replace all the current armours on DL. It really annoys me that player skins are generally nicer to look at than the armour 10:57 Raven262 Yea, i also think that the armor texture is really simplistic. 10:58 Raven262 But, it would take ages to make each armor set different. 10:58 Shara I don't want ultra-realistic, but I do want something that's as detailed as skins usually are 10:58 Shara Well, it certainly takes ages if you are me :P 11:00 Shara I also got annoyed when I hit issues with z fighting on the leggings/boots, and that's where I kind of... stopped for the time being 11:01 Raven262 I never noticed that actually. 11:02 Shara I think you don't get it if there's enough of a colour overlap, so it's not really showing on the simple armour textures 11:03 Raven262 Thats why it can't be seen on ordinary textures, i get it. 11:39 Raven262 Hi Krock 11:40 Krock hi Raven262 11:41 Krock Raven262, is it intended that subtracting your name from the devil's number gives 404? 11:41 Krock i.e. 666 - 262 = 404 (not found) 11:45 Raven262 Wow, one step closer to solving the mystery... 11:45 Raven262 I'll remember this one. 11:46 Krock so the mystery isn't solved completely yet? 11:46 Raven262 No, i don't know why is 262 such a special number. 11:47 Raven262 I placed it in my name in hope someone will know. 11:48 Krock subtracting the outer digits from the inner turns it into an outer digit value 11:48 Krock another step 11:49 Krock adding all of them together gives the amount of your fingers or toes (if you're an average person) 11:49 Raven262 Yea if the second number's digit is not larger than the first one's. 11:50 Raven262 Its not about the math i think. 11:50 Raven262 The number can be found in many places, including history. 11:51 Krock feels like there are 262 "du" sounds in darude sandstorm 11:52 Raven262 what? xD 12:27 Raven262 Made two different textures, stone and sand. 12:27 Raven262 They look the same 12:28 Raven262 It was not intended though. 12:28 Raven262 I can't believe this is even possible. 12:33 twoelk o/ 12:33 Raven262 o/ 12:43 IhrFussel I HATE this Server::SendMovePlayer() segfault that happens so randomly and (mostly) rarely 12:44 IhrFussel And I hate even more that it never happens with the debug build ... seems like this bug will haunt me for a while 12:45 IhrFussel Isn't there something that can be done in c++ to validate the player position's existence? 12:47 IhrFussel It seems to be about position... either some mod reports an incorrect position to the engine or the engine somehow receives the position too slow/too late...not sure 12:48 Krock this means something is teleporting too far outside 12:48 Krock or their yaw/pitch is insane high 12:49 twoelk maybe a value type conversion hickup? 12:49 Krock no, the network packet operators are overloaded correctly 12:50 Krock I'm surprised it doesn't throw an assertion in the debug build 12:50 IhrFussel Krock, one time it happened RIGHT after teleporting to another player 12:50 Krock maybe it happened right after someone left? 12:51 twoelk isn't this the same 3+year old bug that would place players outside of the addressable map? 12:52 IhrFussel You can't reach the end of the map on my server (I think) ... it teleports you 100 nodes back as soon as you hit 14,900 (max is 15,000) 12:52 Krock teleporting function like set_pos doesn't care about this 12:52 nerzhul IhrFussel, don't teleport and move your ass by feet :D 12:53 Krock but he's got a heisenberg compensator to teleport. not everybody owns that 12:53 Krock however, it seems to be malfunctioning sometimes 12:54 twoelk yeah but there was a problem when players where send to positions with insane high coordinates - that is the target values where calculated wrong, so that when mt tried to place the player it crashed 12:55 IhrFussel The segfault happens VERY VERY randomly which is why I can't track it down with a debug build...and I don't want my players to have a bad gameplay experience for weeks...this is the recent dmesg output: https://pastebin.com/w3nyWWRy 12:56 IhrFussel The ip value is always the same meaning same function I guess 12:59 IhrFussel Yep just ran the value through addr2line "Server::SendMovePlayer(unsigned short)" 13:00 IhrFussel Only my moderators can teleport to any coordinate I think...other players only can send requests to each other 13:01 IhrFussel And I see no extra high position in any of the moderator commands log 13:02 IhrFussel Unless...maybe teleport pads could cause this? 13:04 * CWz thinks commercialism is a religion as well 13:04 IhrFussel Nope, just checked mod code...it returns nil if the entered position is out of bounds 13:11 twoelk I don't think it is a wrong command input - rather something like two things happening at the same time that disrupts proper calculation or information transfer 13:13 twoelk maybe some better plausability check is needed befor the server applies a set of coordinates 13:15 IhrFussel I think it's crazy if the engine really doesn't check the position values before applying them...that shouldn't be the mod's job honestly 13:17 IhrFussel The c++ side should compare the map_generation_limit to the entered x,y,z values and it should also check if the positions even make sense or might be corrupted 13:17 twoelk might be simply a corner case that nobody thought about and until now nobody has been able to pinpoint the exact point of failure 13:18 IhrFussel twoelk, I'll look at that c++ function that causes my segfaults...AFAIK there is no validation check 13:18 twoelk I could imagine that maybe the value is so insane that the check itself stumbles 13:24 IhrFussel twoelk, this is the function..I see no checks there https://pastebin.com/KTJQcXLu 13:25 IhrFussel Unless maybe Lua does the checks...will look for that 13:29 IhrFussel Nope I see nothing that could validate/invalidate a position 13:29 Fixer IhrFussel: you need to use gdb and get a backtrace 13:29 IhrFussel I already told you that it happens too rarily/randomly to debug 13:30 Fixer IhrFussel: good luck fixing that bug :D 13:30 twoelk maybe somewhere along TOCLIENT_MOVE_PLAYER something unexpected happens during communication 13:30 Fixer without backtrace your are screwed 13:30 IhrFussel But I am asking the core devs why they thought they wouldn't need to check the pos in Server::SendMovePlayer() unless I'm missing something 13:31 twoelk I would rather think the recieving part should check 13:32 IhrFussel getBasePosition doesn't check the values either it seems...but I am a noob in c++ I'm simply reading the src code and looking for something like "if pos.x > [map limit] or pos.x == "" or pos.x [notnumber]" 13:33 twoelk if the server crashes it must happen while the client sends the new position back 13:33 srifqi Anybody knows how to compile Minetest for Android? 13:41 twoelk there could be two scenarios, either the server stumbles while trying to apply a position calculated wrongly or it crashes when it tries to compute a wrong position type it got from the client that got corrupted during communication 13:43 twoelk do the players see the new position? 13:44 twoelk oops, sort of repeated what you said earlier :-P 13:49 * twoelk decides to go and play on a server instead of talking about things he has only limited knowledge about 13:54 IhrFussel serverpackethandler.cpp also uses the function as "SendMovePlayer(pkt->getPeerId());" 13:54 IhrFussel But the function itself checks if the peer_id leads to an existing player...so that can't be it 14:15 shivajiva anything to suggest nodes being dropped outside the map maliciously? 14:17 sfan5 you need a debug build to be able to understand the problem fully/correctly 14:45 Fixer please support this https://github.com/minetest-mods/technic/issues/392 14:49 Krock define "admins" 14:51 Fixer Krock: users with server or protection_bypass privs 14:51 Fixer i guess 15:02 Shara I really wish all all mods would... just respect protection_bypass 15:04 * Krock 's protection mod does 15:04 Shara I did not know you had one 15:05 Shara But I meant any mods in general. Every so often I find things any player can place no matter where 15:06 Shara Or things a player with protection_bypass can't move 15:06 benrob0329 !seen nerzhul 15:06 ShadowBot benrob0329: I saw nerzhul in #minetest-hub 2 hours, 13 minutes, and 49 seconds ago saying "IhrFussel, don't teleport and move your ass by feet :D" 15:10 twoelk grrr, using git commands in batch files is not fun, they never return control to the batch 15:11 nerzhul !seen benrob0329 15:11 ShadowBot nerzhul: I saw benrob0329 in #minetest-hub 4 minutes and 34 seconds ago saying "!seen nerzhul" 15:11 benrob0329 nerzhul: want to join a Unix talk channel with some other BSD users? 15:12 nerzhul i'm already in #freebsd it's sufficient, why a new chan ? 15:12 benrob0329 Because its pretty laid back 15:13 twoelk laid back in as offtopic? :-D 15:13 twoelk *as in 15:13 nerzhul i don't have time to speak against systemd (i like systemd in Linux, i do Linux app deployment on my server farm (750 servers) everyday and systemd is very nice to handle my services properly 15:14 benrob0329 nerzhul: wot 15:14 nerzhul bahahaha 15:14 benrob0329 When did systems come up? 15:15 benrob0329 *systemd 15:17 Fixer Krock: checking that code 15:25 Fixer Krock: works for me 15:38 CWz I wonder if no rules server owners can get prosecuted for not abiding by child safety laws. since local laws still apply regardless 15:41 CWz Which is the the true idiocy of hosting one in the first place. 15:42 CWz Something to think about 15:43 Krock Fixer, then ask a member who's online right now whether (s)he would be so nice and merge it 15:43 Shara I'd assume it's likely they could depending on what happened on the server 15:44 Shara Just the fact that a server is 'no rules' alone wouldnt be enough though 15:44 shivajiva I believe it falls on the laws in the country hosting the server 15:46 Shara If there is something obviously illegal going on, especially involving children, and you ignore it... well, I'd like to think that isn't what server owners running these things are aiming for anyway, and that they'd step in 15:48 shivajiva being aware and ignoring it would make you complicit and would probably carry charges, just to up the ante 15:50 Shara This stuff is the reason I do occasional key-word checks on my logs, just in case anything gets turned up that I need to be aware of and step in for 15:52 shivajiva judicious monitoring is essential, it's care of duty imo 15:54 shivajiva simply because peoples idea of freedom don't align 15:59 shivajiva that's why the system does it :) 16:10 ThomasMonroe guys what does this mean? 16:10 ThomasMonroe 2017-09-22 16:06:03: WARNING[Main]: Undeclared global variable "module" accessed at /usr/local/share/lua/5.1/ltn12.lua:14 16:15 shivajiva it means you are using the IRC mod, specifically luasocket, I think everyone sees the error 16:20 shivajiva *warning 16:38 benrob0329 12 hours pass, and still no change to the state of Offtopic 16:46 ThomasMonroe what would this mean then: 16:46 ThomasMonroe 2017-09-22 16:06:02: WARNING[Main]: Couldn't find a locale directory! 16:51 Krock it means what it says 16:51 Krock there's no locale directory. i.e. failed installation 16:55 ThomasMonroe hmm ok so it's the minetest instalation 16:59 shivajiva again another warning most of us see ThomasMonroe, always assumed it was a missing locale folder for intlib 17:03 CWz if bullshit post counts are an issue, make it so the posts in offtopic don't count towards the users postcounts 17:03 CWz simple, right? 17:04 CWz Honestly, for the life of me, i have no idea why anyone would waste their time with shitposting 17:05 sfan5 CWz: that's already implemented 17:10 CWz I just can't understand that mindset. 17:11 ThomasMonroe ok thanks shivajiva 17:30 Fixer nerzhul: whats wrong with moving other people chests by admins? it is often a big problem when everything is griefed and only steel door and locked chest is flying while player left forever 17:30 nerzhul it's trollday 17:31 twoelk there is the admin-tnt for that 17:31 Fixer nerzhul: admins should not troll, if they do - bad admin 17:31 Fixer i don't need admin tnt 17:31 Fixer i want to relocate chest, maybe just put in on the ground 17:31 nerzhul i'm not an admin i'm a dev 17:32 twoelk hmm, maybe make chests fall to the ground 17:32 Fixer or say server stuff is extra nice and collects all locked chests in air and move them to lost and found building near spawn 17:32 Fixer griefed property is completely removed for other people to build 17:32 twoelk and steel doors with no connected nodes collaps 17:32 Fixer yet chest is preserved 17:32 Fixer twoelk: that needs some kind of abm 17:33 Fixer i would like more tools for server admins 17:33 twoelk indeed 17:33 Fixer in my mind i have "restoration wand" 17:33 Fixer its purpose is: you point and click with it in some area and it completery reemerges it to pristine state 17:34 twoelk no prestine state is saved anywhere 17:34 Fixer regenerates area 17:34 Fixer if you not guessed 17:34 Fixer another tool - builders wand 17:34 twoelk lag had some mods allong that line 17:34 Fixer helps too build in a lot of places 17:35 Fixer another tool is removal wand 17:35 Fixer that you use to remove big pillars 17:35 twoelk maikerumine or sorcerykid may have forked them 17:37 Aerozoic Fixer, isn't that what //deleteblocks does in worldedit? 17:38 Fixer Aerozoic: kinda, but faster 17:39 twoelk the worldedit-wand is pretty usefull 17:39 twoelk as is sokomine's node-replacement-tool 17:47 Fixer yeah, but it is not enough 17:56 H4mlet is it possible to avoid this warning by allowing more nodes to be stored?

(not compatible with Firefox 57 and later…), JSON formatters/code syntax highlighters in raw views 19:08 Calinou and of course, ponymotes… they're not updated for WebExtensions yet :D 19:08 * Calinou hides 19:09 Fixer i have 15 addons, of them only 2 - webext 19:09 Fixer everything else is legacy 19:09 Fixer without them it will just suck balls 19:10 benrob0329 I have 4 addons, cVim, Jitsi Meetings, Stylish, and uBlock Origin 19:11 Calinou I was a Stylish user before, but most of the dark themes made by the community are pretty meh 19:11 Calinou I wish more websites had official dark themes 19:11 Fixer "What about extensions like Element Hiding Helper, Customizations and similar?" 19:11 Calinou even YouTube has one now 19:11 Fixer fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu 19:11 Calinou GitHub/GitLab Please :) 19:11 Fixer i have element hiding helper, very useful, it will not be ported 19:11 Fixer fuck this 19:12 benrob0329 Web browsers are way over-engineered for what the web started at imho 19:12 benrob0329 *as 19:12 Calinou yes, but it had to evolve 19:12 Calinou don't tell me it didn't… would you use web browsers without any support for video/audio streaming? 19:13 twoelk I used browsers long befor that 19:13 benrob0329 Evolve to what? A mangled application framework that need hardware acceleration and scripting just to read an article? 19:13 Calinou pretty much everything needs (or highly benefits from )hardware acceleration 19:14 Calinou Chromium still works in software mode (it's the default on Linux), but it'll be a power hog this way, and it'll feel slower 19:15 Krock Before anyone is going to complain about the issue count: https://github.com/vector-im/riot-web ;) 19:15 benrob0329 Well, bug projects will have a lot of issues :-) 19:16 twoelk web pages containened information then - now I have to wait for all that sparkling, jiggling, tracking, user-analyzing, media-rich-gigabyte content to load before I can maybe read some content hidden by all the advertising 19:16 tenplus1 hi folks 19:17 twoelk o/ 19:17 benrob0329 ^ 19:17 tenplus1 o/ twoelk 19:17 tenplus1 hi benrob 19:17 benrob0329 Basic HTML isn't broke, and if it's ugly you need to fix your browser colors :-) 19:17 unk hi tenplus1 19:17 benrob0329 a little CSS will make a world of difference, if you want 19:17 benrob0329 hi ten 19:17 tenplus1 hi unk 19:17 twoelk css is overrated 19:17 * tenplus1 uses iframes 19:18 Krock hi tenplus1 19:18 tenplus1 o/ Krock :P 19:20 twoelk long time ago I remember arguing with some adobe guy on how coding colored backgrounds in tablecells was much leaner and faster than cutting a screenshot of a designed page into tiles and loading that 19:21 twoelk that was on the cebit and I got pushed away quickly when real cusomers showed up :-D 19:21 tenplus1 there's many good ways to streamline a website so it loads faster, it's just a shame most web devs forget them completely at times :P 19:22 Calinou someone explored my server! https://games.hugo.pro/minetest/map_calinou/ 19:22 Calinou look at the right (unzoom) 19:22 tenplus1 hi Cal 19:22 Calinou hi :) 19:22 tenplus1 ehehe, exploration donuts 19:22 Calinou tenplus1: yes, WPO is sometimes completely forgotten about… but lots of modern websites load really fast 19:23 Calinou https://lichess.org/ or https://devdocs.io/ 19:24 Calinou a lot of the tips are standard, there's no reason not to apply them 19:24 Calinou this tool is nice: https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/ 19:24 Calinou it also is available in the Chrome DevTools 19:24 tenplus1 http://lolsnaps.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/61fc02078c3adc9fe7d7bfd3c0de7301.jpg 19:25 Krock already seen as http://www.overclockers.com.au/images/newspics/22sep17/24.jpg 19:25 tenplus1 lol 19:25 tenplus1 my link is clearer :) ehehehe 19:26 tenplus1 hi bigfoot 19:26 bigfoot548 hey tenplus1 19:26 bigfoot548 I'm currently moving from my self-hosted ZNC to a ZNC on linode :P 19:27 Calinou Krock, tenplus1: https://xkcd.com/1683/ 19:28 tenplus1 lololol 19:28 Krock can confirm 19:30 Calinou heh, also found this while searching for that particular comic: https://www.xkcd.com/488/ 19:30 Calinou and now we have the W3C DRM :( 19:30 Calinou hahahaha 19:31 Calinou I tested https://google.com on PageSpeed, this is the result: https://media.hugo.pro/chrome_2017-09-22_21-30-59.png 19:31 tenplus1 lol, yeah... drm sucketh 19:31 Calinou it has a captcha 19:32 twoelk hm, my old homepage scores 97/100 for mobiles on PageSpeed-Tools-Insights 19:33 twoelk oh, minetest.net scores 73/100 - 19:34 twoelk but good for desktop 19:35 Calinou the PageSpeed site itself loads very quickly 19:35 Calinou (once you loaded it once) 19:35 Calinou my own website has 75/100 on mobile, 56/100 on desktop 19:35 Calinou (some images have an overly high resolution on loDPI displays) 19:35 Calinou (and Google really dislikes this – for good reason) 19:36 Calinou I'm still working on a website redesign :P 19:39 tenplus1 h H4mlet 19:40 H4mlet hi tenplus1 thanks 19:40 tenplus1 :P 19:41 Fixer i see a lot of people use ublock origin, is it better than adblock plus?
